The following is a re cent letter from her in which she gives her opinion of Pe-ru-na as a specific for catarrh of tho stomach and general debility: Chicago, 111.. COO West North Ave. Pe-ru-na Medicine Co., Columbus. O. : Gentlemen I am very pleased to ne knowedge the very valuable euratlvo merits of Pe-ru-na, especially in cases of stomach trouble and general debil ity. It restores lost strength and builds up the entire system to its normal condition. I have had good opportun ity to test Its value and speak from personal experience. Several of my friends have also used it and I have so far found that they were all well pleased with tho effects of Pe-ru-na. I can conscientiously recommend it us u first-class medicine. Yours very truly, Mrs. Anne Nelson. Mrs. Matthew Schmidt, Jordan. Ore gon, writes: "I have not taken Pe-ru-na for quite a while nnd am feeling real well. There Is almost no trace left of the catarrh. I thank you a thousand times for the good advice you have given me, und In case I have a return of the trouble I shall write you. I ad vised one of my neighbors to take Pe-ru-na, who also Improved." Mrs. Matthew Schmidt. Mrs. D. Finlay. Petoskey, Mich., says; "I never was better In my life than I am now. Pe-ru-na has cured me of nil my stomach nnd bowel trou ble. 1 was fifty-seven yearn old Inst Friday and don't feel ns if I could ho more than twenty. Oh, what a pleas ure it Is to have good health, I was sick for five long years. I doctored all the time. Nothing helped me perma nently until I heard of Dr. Hartman and his medicine, nnd he cured me. I had been so sick, suffered al most death, vom iting three or four times dally; no strength, not able ........ ...... ...... rv. for one year and S a hnlf I havn ' lifon n wn.i rit. & man.

He takes Pe-ru-na ev ery day and says: 'Dr. Hartman and Pe-ru-na ore worth all tho world to me.' There are three or four people here taking Pe-iu-mi for rheumatic troubles, and like it so much. There are a great many nore that use it al together. I wish eve.y prior soul would try his medicine." Mrs. J. A. Raslior. of Knoxvllle, Tenti., writes: "It gives me much pleasure to recommend to the puh'io such a valuable remedy as Pe-ru-na. My health was completely Lokcn down, and has been for nlmost a year. I could not rest day or night, but suf fered untold misery. I tried remedy after remedv. but found no relief until Pe-ru-na was recommended to me by a. friend. I htve tn!rn one nnd one-half bottles and am today well nnd hearty. I shall always praise Pe-ru-na for I feel It saved my life. My family has received such benefits from tho use of Pe-ru-na that wo consider It the best medicine on earth, end we are seldom without It In the house." Good blood Is the result of good fond, well digested. Bad food, oven though It be well digested, can not mike -rood blood. Good food must be well digest ed to make good blood. Therefore, diseased nerves are traceable directly to poor digestion, and poor digestion is directly tra able to catarrh. With the slightest catarrh of the stomach no one can have good digestion. Very few of Mi" many women who have catarrh of the stomach suspect what their real trouble is. They know they belch after meals, have sour stomach, a sensation of weight or heaviness, a rullness, irregular appe tite, drowsiness, gnawing, empty sen sations, occasional pain they nil Know this; but they do not know that their trouble Is catarrh of the stomach. If they did they would take Pe-ru-na. Pe-ru-na cures catarrh wherever lo cated. As soon as Pe-ru-na removes catarrh from the stomach the digestion becomes good, appetite regular, nerves strong and trouble vanishes. Pe-ru-na strengthens weak nerves, not by tem porarily stimulating them, hut by re moving the cause of weak nerves poor digestion. This Is tho only cure that las.ts. Keinovo .the cause: Nature will do the rest. Pe-ru-na removes the cause. "Health and Reauty" sent free by The Pe-ru-na Medicine Co., Columbus, Ohio.

Speclnl to The Ecrorton Tribune. Thompson, Nov. 3. It has Just como to the knowledge of tho writer of these Items that on Oct. S. Mrs. Annie K. Brown, of Scranton; Mis. J. E. Moon and Myron Moon nnd wife of New Mil ford; Mrs. C. H. Rogers, Mrs. Kate R. Wrights nnd Miss Jennie E. Cooper ot i)eing formed ot the Jcrvls-llardenbcrgh Carbondale; all unexpectedly camo In ' School of Music nnd Art. So many pupils on Rev. Leonard Cole and wife, and i were enrolled in tho chlldrens class last Two great coneerts are soon to be giv en under the auspices of tho Conser-a-tory of Music. Godowsky, the pianist, gives the tlrst, and Krncst Gamble, the famous American basso, with Madame Klhel, pianist, of London, who toured with Madame Pattl, give tho second. Much tho same Interest Is being mani fested In the coming of tho great Rus sian pianist, Qouowsky, under tho aus pices of the Conservatory of Music, as was shown In the visit of Rosenthal, 'i'ho teachers of tho piano, to wlvnu Go dowMcy Is well known, are urging their students to attend, and as one teacher lias taken forty tickets, anoth r thirty, .mother llftccu, etc., tho sudent element will bo well represented. The Chicago musical critic for tho New York Musical Courier says of a recital given by Leopold Godowsky in Chicago in December of last year as follows: "Tho recital given by Mr. Godowsky, the great Russian pianist, was tho principal planlsttc event heard hero for some time. Modern criticism tends towards extrava gance, cither for or against, but in tho matter of Mr. Godowsky It would be im possible to speak aught but extravagant ly, for the man Is such a consummate artist. Godowfky, In the Judgment ot the unprejudiced, ranks with Rosenthal for technique, and Is unsurpassed In Inter pretation. The extraordinary arrange ment of tho two G flat studies of Chop in is attemptablo only by a Godowsky or Rosenthal, as tho work to be done by the left hand is stupendous. After Mm performance of this arrangement, tho nudience insisted upon a repetition, and not the least enthusiastic applauder was Morltz Rosenthal, who occupied a box, and wns.probably the most appreciative listener in tho audience. All the witchery of Godowsky's playing was apparent in the Liszt-Tanhcucstr overture which was the concluding number of a recital which ranks with any recital heard in Chicago since music flrst held sway." "II H A school or class, for children, In tho rudiments of music and singing, has been u lone felt want in our city. Wo are glad to note that such classes aro now THE MARKETS. Wall Street Review.

Puck Freeman, of the Washington Na tional League Uase Rail te.im, Is at home In Wllkes-Rarre, after tstublishlng a rec ord for hiniHelf ns the champion long distance batter of tho country. Freeman hud ti marvelous score ot over 130 extra bases t,j Ida credit. lie drove out twenty six homo runs alone. This Is tho big gest record made in many seasons In tho big league, and sets the old baso ball scribes to thinking of Il-te Browning, Dave Orr, Dan Rrouthers, and other an eieiil wluldcis of the ash of great re nown. Freeman played with Washing ton all last season and a short part of tha season belore. going to tho team from Toronto in the KAstcrn league. lie Is well known In this city, having often played here, when Scranton had an East ern league team. He was always con sidered a heavy batsman, but last season he did the best work ot bis career. . Last Saturday's big foot ball games proved tho greatest surprises that hav occurred in the history of American foot ball. Cornell, until last year, considered ono of the Class IJ foot ball colleges, de feated Princeton, long recognized ns ono of the champion foot ball universities of the country. Hut far worse was tho defeat ot Yale nt tho hands of Co lumbia. Columbia hi.s never been rue (fgulzed 1111 possessing any status tn the foot ball world, und yet Yale imgluv Yale, whose brawny sons, up to lust year were champions of the luter-eolleglaio arena, year after year, fell ut her hands These two eicnts 111 e both almost ui ptecedented. und til fact that they botM should happen on tin i-ame day oniy makes them the more striking.
